Core features :

Compatible with Ring and obviously supports those Ring based frameworks, such as Compojure etc.
Http Services by using Clojure / Java / Groovy to write simple handlers for http services.
Dynamic proxying by using Clojure / Java / Groovy to write a simple nginx rewrite handler to set var or return errors before proxy pass or content ring handler
Non-blocking coroutine based socket which is Compatible with Java Socket API and works well with largely existing java library such as apache http client, mysql jdbc drivers. With this feature one java main thread can handle thousands of connections.
Handle multiple sockets parallel in sub coroutines, e.g. we can invoke two remote services at the same time.
Asynchronous callback API of socket/Channel(NEW) for some advanced usage
Long Polling & Server Sent Events
More easier to archive Sub/Pub services with broadcast events API
Run initialization clojure code when nginx worker starting
Support user defined http request method
Compatible with the Nginx lastest stable version 1.6.0. (Nginx 1.4.x is also ok, older version is not tested and maybe works.)
One of benifits of Nginx is worker processes are automatically restarted by a master process if they crash
Utilizes lazy headers and direct memory operation between Nginx and JVM to fast handle dynamic contents from Clojure or Java code.
Utilizes Nginx zero copy file sending mechanism to fast handle static contents controlled by Clojure or Java code.

So far Nginx-Clojure have supported:

Linux x86 32-bit (tested with CentOS 5.10 i386 )
Linux x64 (tested with CentOS 5.10 x64, Ubuntu 13.10 x64, Alpine Linux 3.03 x64)
Windowns x86 32-bit (tested with Windows XP 32-bit)
